Our Virtual servers are a truly virtual cloud computing solution that combines the performance of a top-end server and the convenience of a hosted solution. The flexibility to upgrade or downgrade your hardware specifications remotely, and create or remove additional virtual machines, instantly and easily.

Virtual Server Hosting works by partitioning large physical servers into multiple virtual servers, each of which has its own operating system and can be rebooted independently.Each virtual server behaves as though it were a separate physical machine, but can be removed or replaced without disrupting any other services.

Our virtual servers provide the following benefits:

Completely hardware agnostic

Complete server redundancy - they cannot go down due to hardware failure as your server is not a physical machine any more or connected to one physical machine either

You do not have any infrastructure, hardware or base server OS licensing costs whatsoever - forget about paying off that expensive new server your company needs, rather get a virtual server

You can easily move almost any server, software or service your company uses to the cloud with our virtual servers

The connectivity supplied to your virtual servers far exceeds any conventional connectivity a company can have to their own on premise servers

Instantly change your working environment from a closed system to a open cloud based but secure platform

Both Microsoft and Linux virtual servers available

We also provide fully managed virtual servers with covering SLA's and provide configuration and setup services to match. With our virtual servers and support team - we can move any server to the cloud!

Our online cloud storage platform allows secure remote storage of data to allow access to this data from any location around the world. Our solutions allow full collaboration for an entire workforce with unlimited users connected simultaneously.

We provide solutions based on Drop Box, Jungle disk and our own proprietary implementations. This data can be hosted in USA, Germany or locally in sunny South Africa making it quite a range of possible options, we therefore prefer to discuss the clients requirements and expectations before proposing a solutions to ensure those expectations are met.

Further than that, it is very simply, you need a base account and from that point onward you simply pay for the space you use.

Features and notes:

Connection and file transfers are SSL encrypted

Data is stored in security controlled facility with backup power and fire prevention mechanisms

Connection can be provided as a mapped network drive, FTP, Mac Time machine and RSync server to name a few

We provide Google apps integration and conversion services, guide our clients to the best possible implementation to use and support the Google Apps platform as it is a great solution to modern business needs.

For the best up to date information on what these solutions can provide for your business please contact us for a free consultation and have a read on the official Google Apps page here.

We believe in not demoing the solution to a customer as it can miss key features that might be of benefit to you. We rather follow a hands on analysis approach where we determine the following:

Your requirement / what you want to achieve on an IT level

Your current infrastructure and IT process

Your expectations of the solution

This then allows us to cater the implementation to your specific needs and the process is entirely free up until the deployment phase.

Notes:

The setup and rates per user is negotiable and dependant on the user volumes, for very small setups of 5 or less users the per user cost might be higher to cover the cost of the server.

The virtual server cost is not included and needs to be added - we will guide you as to which server will be suitable for your needs

Any of the above servers are also available as on-site options where the hardware and software can be purchased outright, rented form Easy IT or provided as a service to you as the customer
